RHLSTP with Richard Herring

#366 I Have a Dream - Richard has some bad news about Scooby Doo, but some good news about Emergency Questions getting mixed up with Scottish seamen. It’s another TransAtlantic remote podcast, with a return from thoughtful comedy genius David Cross. They chat about poor political predictions, the pain of 18 months away from stand up, David’s new special “I’m From The Future”, the rapid return to health of Bob Odenkirk, getting owl talon marks on your head, whether it’s funny when anti-vaxxers die of Covid and not wanting to repeat the mistakes of your father. A fascinating chat, going into some serious depth about the mindset of a comedian.See David’s fantastic new special exclusively at https://officialdavidcross.com/Live RHLSTPs coming up in Leicester and the Leicester Square Theatre.

#40 Good and EvilIn another blast from the past, here’s the full length interview with evolutionary psychologist Lance Workman about good and evil. Again, what’s coming is going to be as much a surprise to me as it is to you. Except I am not going to listen to it.

#365 Apology to Kris Marshall - In another Covid hit remote show, Richard is wondering if Boris Johnson will still be PM by the time this podcast is released (of course he will) and worried about new developments in his daughter’s new relationship. His guest is the actually not political comedian and writer Grainne Maguire. They talk about Grainne’s very entertaining new podcast, The Way They Were https://podcasts.apple.com/mt/podcast/the-way-they-were/id1598595577?uo=4, the power of discussing your worst moments, doing stand up for Gerry Adams, terrible things to say on a first date, trying to give a motivational speech to public school kids, a ghostly hangover cure, meeting Seth Meyers and why Grainne tweeted her menstrual cycle to Enda Kenny. Check out Grainne’s brilliantly frank newsletter here https://www.grainnemaguire.co.uk/Live RHLSTPs coming up in Leicester and the Leicester Square Theatre.

#39 Death - This one is about death and features Nick Lane and if I am honest with you I remember nothing at all about it. Not Nick’s fault. I was very busy and very tired.I bet it’s interesting though. We’ll see.

#364 Naked in Brixton - Richard is still isolating, and has had to reluctantly welcome a new son-in-law into his life. His guest is actor, director and musician Laura Jean Marsh. They chat about leaving home at 16 to be in a band, how Laura Jean’s experiences in the music scene inspired her to write, direct and star in the feature film, Giddy Stratospheres, how she persuaded Richard to take a part in the movie, how the Hell you get something like this off the ground during lockdown and how taking a punt can lead to all kinds of opportunities. Plus is it too soon to be nostalgic about 2007 and a horrifying emergency question about back lips and some stuff about Scooby Doo. An inspiring chat for anyone who hopes to get a creative project off the ground. You can watch Giddy Stratospheres for free on Amazon Prime (if you are an Amazon Prime member) or rent from all the usual places.

#38 Love - Richard discusses love with the Agony Aunt who turns out to be his nearby neighbour. They shared a cab home afterwards. Discretion means I can not discuss what happened after that.

#363 What Women Want! - Richard has got Covid 19 - always late to the party - but nothing can stop him podcasting and so this remote recording carries on regardless (with social distancing of 100 miles, which the NHS has determined is fairly safe). His guest is comedian and author Laura Lexx. They discuss the genesis of her hilarious new book, Klopp Actually (Buy here- https://www.lauralexx.co.uk/klopp-actually), how lockdown prompted creative ways of working, whether Somerset should change its name, Perkin Warbeck, appearing in Panto and the worst thing to have in your mouth. Will this be the last RHLSTP ever? And who will host the show if it is. It’s all sorted out in the podcast and so this should be considered a last will and testament.Live RHLSTPs coming up in London, Bristol, Leicester and the Leicester Square Theatre.

#362 You Start Monday! - Wow, what’s this, a remote RHLSTP whilst we’re still allowed (at the time of recording) to go outside. We’re filling a little gap in our schedule with some remote pods, this one from the 6th January at 11am LA time with too gorgeous comedy behemoth Peter Baynham. The old flatmates discuss bad chat up lines, the freedom of podcasting, the brilliant Brain Cigar https://audioboom.com/channels/5053035, why it’s probably a good thing that Richard didn’t work on Ron’s Gone Wrong, where Peter was when Rudi G was undoing his pants, the Sliding Doors moments that made Peter’s career and saved Rich’s children’s lives and what might have been if Peter hadn’t stolen some photocopier paper in the early 90s and where Fist of Fun might go next.

#36 Creation - In an interview from Richard Herring's Meaning of Life, Rich talks to Marcus Chown about the creation of the universe and whether science knows any more than anyone else.
